From what I've read in the forums, Mobil1 TriSynthetic wasn't very good,
which is what I was using. Also whatever they called it before that. But
there SuperSyn is suppose to be a lot better. Now that really brings a high
level of confidence to the table. I have 4 quarts of TriSyn left, and live
in the Omaha, NE area if anyone wants it, just let me know. I'm more
convinced than ever I won't be doing Mobil anything again.

Just convinces me that I'm right not to be using Mobil1 anymore. Seems like
a lot of people like Amsoil though.

Curious, is 10k miles the only recommendation or does your Owners Manual
list special operating conditions that warrant shorter oil services?

Example: Philip was always cantankerous in the morning, given to snapping

It would likely be the same as Honda, which was posted earlier.

The manual recommends 5k for severe operating conditions. I also split
the difference and change mine every 7,500 using Mobil 1.

Thank you, Dave. How does Honda word (define) "Severe" service?
